Hi,

I used OUTRES, LOCI and  PRESOL, LOCI commands to obtain the integration point coordinates for a single Solid187 element(tetrahedron), but I am receiving the following message

I have enabled large deflection in the analysis settings and also added the NLGEOM,ON command, but I am still getting the same message. How can I obtain the coordinates of the integration points?

I get integration points for solid187 with the test input below:

/prep7
et,1,187
mp,ex,1,3e7
mp,nuxy,1,0.3
block,,1,,1,,1
esize,1
vmesh,1
